Minus 15 points to Griffendor for talking about Vinny again.

If we are forced to change the name then it should be the Braves, the original name we had but I am totally against changing the Redskins name.

And so are a majority of people according to an AP Poll:

AP: More Americans hail Redskins over other names for Cowboys' rival (http://www.dallasnews.com/sports/dallas-cowboys/headlines/20130502-ap-more-americans-hail-redskins-over-other-names-for-cowboys-rival.ece)

Never been a big fan of polls. I'll make an exception in this case.

WASHINGTON — It’s been a rough offseason for the Washington Redskins, and not just because of the knee injury to star quarterback Robert Griffin III.
The team’s nickname, which some consider a derogatory term for Native Americans, has faced a barrage of criticism. Local leaders and pundits have called for a name change. Opponents have launched a legal challenge intended to deny the team federal trademark protection. A bill introduced in Congress in March would do the same, though it appears unlikely to pass.
But a new Associated Press-GfK poll shows that nationally,“Redskins” still enjoys widespread support. Nearly four in five Americans don’t think the team should change its name, the survey found. Only 11 percent think it should be changed, while 8 percent weren’t sure and 2 percent didn’t answer.
Although 79 percent favor keeping the name, that does represent a 10 percentage point drop from the last national poll on the subject, conducted in 1992 by The Washington Post and ABC News just before the team won its most recent Super Bowl. Then, 89 percent said the name should not be changed, and 7 percent said it should.

#48 would be good for Rambo since he wore #18 in college.

Bersteine wears that

can we stop posting name change crap. no offense, but it's old and it's a lot of whining for the sake of whining right now.

Not like anyone else tried this before... http://www.thewarpath.net/nfl-draft-central/52668-draft-talk-rounds-4-7-a-20.html#post1006533

Its true. You are the most original ****in' person ever. CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!

/me goes to take a runny shit.

And, just my two cents on this name change crap, and I'm sure Cult has said it before, but I feel that a majority of the country is getting to the point of being more than fed up with all of this PC BS taking over society. There will not be a name change, but there will eventually be a backlash against the in your face ever present "PC" crowd.

was just playing Madden and scrolling along the bottom with the latest NFL news it mentioned Tebow possibly coming to Washington to run options? anybody else hear anything i cant find anything else
